GhostStories

I picked this up from the library on Saturday, intending to read it in October. I've done nothing but read it since. I can not put it down. It's even better than Fingersmith. There, I said it.

‘Tom Wallace lived an ordinary life, until a chance event awakened psychic abilities he never knew he possessed.‘

Finished in January for #TwinPeaksReadingChallenge

I really like the movie, which I saw before reading the book. The book has a lot of differences so it was like reading an entirely different story. This was a decent ghost story. Good for fans of ghost fiction.

AnnCrystal True, the book is different. While the the movie is one of my favorites, the book didn't make it as affavorite. Although, the scenes that were good, were creepy good 📚💝. 1w

Bookwomble I enjoyed both the movie and the book. I like the differences, as it meant both had an element of surprise regardless of which you first experienced. Matheson is such a good writer. 1w

JessClark78 @AnnCrystal I agree. Both are good, but I prefer the movie as well. 1w

JessClark78 @Bookwomble That‘s exactly how I felt. The book gave me an ending I wasn‘t expecting. He is a good writer. I have to read more of his books. 1w

The Woman in Black: A Ghost Story | Susan Hill

I really enjoyed the audible audio for this book.
I had seen the film and was looking forward to the book, but they made it even more engaging and tense than I anticipated.

The house on the marshes cut away from the quaint farmers town by the tides is a perfect setting for a ghost story. And while there is no over the top ghostly activity it is all the more chilling for it. Especially once we learn the true consequences of the haunting.

thegirlwiththelibrarybag I haven‘t read the book or seen the movie but really recommend seeing it on stage, if the opportunity arises. It manages to raise the tension so high, mostly through anticipation. 2w

Bookworm54 @thegirlwiththelibrarybag I will keep an eye out for it! ☺️ 1w

The Woman in Black: A Ghost Story | Susan Hill

so-so

Although this book was published in 1983, Susan Hill wrote it like a true Victorian/Edwardian author would. I checked multiple times because I had trouble believing it was only written 42 years ago. I love the premise of the ghost story, but it took too long to get to the point. Plus, her writing is something to get used to as you‘re reading. The ending was NOT what I expected though. I would still recommend for the overall story.
